Noting the large stresses that can be caused by thermal expansion, an amateur weapon inventor decides to use it to make a new kind of gun. He plans to jam a bullet against an aluminum rod inside a closed invar tube. When he heats the tube, the rod will expand more than the tube and a verystrong force will build up. Then, by a method yet to be determined, he will open the tube in a split second and let the force of the rod launch the bullet at very high speed. What is he overlooking?
The rail roads are usually macde of steel material segments with a 10 m long. Between each segments
there are some spacing for the contraction and expansion because of temperature differences.
a. When the temperature of certain region is changes between -20.0 °C and 30 °C how much
space they should put between each segment?
b. If the segments are orngınally n contact, what is the stress in them at 30 C?
The cross section radius of a bar of metal of length L and uniform coefficient of thermal conductivity k is expressed as r = (1 + x)1/2, where x is the distance from one end of the bar. Calculate the rate of heat transfer H if the two ends are kept at temperatures TH and TL respectively

- (a) An exterior wall of a house is 3 m tall and 10 m wide. It consists of a layer of drywall with an R factor of 0.56, a layer 3.5 inches thick filled with fiberglass batts, and a layer of insulated siding with an R factor of 2.6.

- A copper bar is welded end to end to a bar of an unknown metal. The two bars have the same lengths and cross-sectional areas. The free end of the copper bar is maintained at a temperature TH that can be varied. The free end of the unknown metal is kept at 0.0∘C. To measure the thermal conductivity of the unknown metal, you measure the temperature T at the junction between the two bars for several values of TH. You plot your data as T versus TH both in kelvins, and find that your data are well fit by a straight line that has slope 0.460.
